Trying to put the dotnet try in docker Each line from here is taking time – save this as docker.console file FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/sdk:3.0 RUN dotnet tool install -g –add-source “https://dotnet.myget.org/F/dotnet-try/api/v3/index.json” dotnet-try ENV PATH=”$PATH:/root/.dotnet/tools” #ENV ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://+:5000 CMD dotnet try –verbose –port 443 EXPOSE 443   I can run this by docker build -f ./console.docker . -t…
